I think we all want to know what the issues you had were...

I dread to think what my CRD weighs

Well good, im on point in that area then! Great to hear.
Not enough up travel for my liking! less than 2" between lower/upper bump stops while running 100kmh on crappy roads, i get heavy bottoming out.
Even dropping out of steep driveways, both front wheels at the same time, feels like its hitting too firm...

The issues i had on the Cape York trip was first a snapped front end link. Then continued to drive for a few 1000kms, then snapped that stupid tie rod adjusting sleeve [factory tie rod], forced to weld it to continue. Then uni's popping caps!

Anyone solve this with higher rated springs front and rear?

I had the synergy springs that came with the rest of the kit.
they completely sagged at the front, i never realised how badly until i changed them (CRD Auto, Arb bar, and warn winch)

Called up Stu at Murchison Products and he knew exactly what springs I would need just by telling him what I had on the Jeep. It's sitting and riding perfectly now
